LabJack Device Driver
Learn how to acquire data from and control LabJack hardware using Synnax.
The LabJack LJM library allows Synnax to directly connect to your LabJack T-series devices. This page will walk you through some of the important prerequisites necessary to get started with the NI driver.
Supported Devices
Synnax supports reading and writing data to all LabJack devices that are supported by the LJM Library.
Currently, only T-Series LabJack devices are supported by Synnax. If you are interested in using Synnax with other devices, please contact us.
Installation
The LabJack driver comes installed with every Synnax deployment.
Installing LJM
The LabJack LJM library must be installed for Synnax to communicate with your LabJack hardware. Instructions for installing LJM software can be found on the LabJack website.
If you have a Synnax cluster already running before installing LJM, you’ll need to restart the cluster for Synnax to recognize the LJM installation.
OS Compatibility
The LabJack driver is only compatible when running the Synnax Database on a Windows machine. The driver will not be able to find your devices when running on Linux, macOS, or within a Docker container (even if that container is running on Windows).
